Damage reports Russellville.
I don’t know the areas I am talking about.
That town was gutted if it was on the ground.

Bad enough that there is damage in Russellville but that is headed to Decatur that is much more populated.

I’ve given up trying to watch local news feeds from Bama.
All I am seeing is the damn Sonic commercial over and over from channel to channel.

Current track would have it south of Decatur at least. Moulton or just north looks in the path and it's still got a good couplet on radar.

Chasing rain wrapped tornadoes in Dixie Alley is dangerous enough... I hope these chasers got out of the way or the tornado lifted.

I'm just south of decatur, suppose to hit here in about 20mins. I will hopefully let everyone know how bad it is
Posted on 3/19/18 at 5:59 pm to GEAUXmedic
Cells are still clustered but are starting to sag SE indicating they are interacting with the surface warm front. Tornado risk is rapidly increasing and it is possible that the Russellville tornado could long track along that front despite being in a cluster.

Find a safe spot. Looks like Moulton is in line for a direct hit from my radar. Tornado wrapped in rain, won't see it coming.
